Best Heater Yet

Reviewed in the USA on 2015-11-05T16:00:00

This heater is fantastic. I live in a split level home and the downstairs is a finished living area. Living room, bar, bedroom and bathroom.....We had a few cold nights last week and in split levels, the downstairs can get a little bit cold. I turned on the heater and it tells you right away what the temp. is in the room and it was 68 degrees. Just a little too chilly to be comfortable. I went and selected the manual temp control and set it to 72 just to see how quickly it could heat up this large open area. It did a great job. It only took an hour or so before it hit 70 and then another 30 minutes to hit 72....which turned out to be a little to toasty for me. It is a good size, not too big, so you can put it in a space that it won't be tripped over. I really like the safety features on this heater too. If it moves in any way it turns itself off. It comes with a remote control that of course we had to try out and it worked great from the couch which was about 5 feet away from the unit. When you are not using the remote the is a nice little spot for it right under the handle. It run very quiet too. When you power it off it has a 60 second cool down period where the fan just runs and coold it down before turning off. I am really impressed with this product and I would recommend getting one for that area that just needs to be a little warmer.

The Honeywell Energy Smart Infrared Heater is a very efficient, quiet and fast way to add warmth to large spaces. The infrared has 6 quartz elements and is specifically designed for extra large rooms. A clean and cheap way to supplement your homes heat supply. It has a programmable heat and thermostat settings, and an automatic shut off built right in. This makes it perfect for business' or homes. This model comes with a remote control so you can access it from the comfort of your chair, very easy and convenient. The digital panel has manual controls and a large lit LED display for easy setting. I am able to use the two settings, Low uses 1000 watts, and the high uses 1500 watts of power. The casing is cool to the touch and has a handle on the top for moving or adjusting your unit. It is designed with safety features such as an automatic shut off in case of accidental tipping, the plug is a grounded three prong plug, and also built in protection that prevents the unit from over heating in order to keep you and your family safe. This infrared heater has casters [wheels] on the bottom for ease of re-positioning. It weighs about 20 lbs. and is fairly good size. It is about 12" wide, 15 1/2" deep and right at 16" in height. I choose this heater because I have a completely open floor plan in my home. Kitchen, dining, living room and family room. When I am up during the day I turn my heat pump way down and these rooms get very cool so I set my Honeywell and it takes the chill off of all four rooms very well. The settings allow for heating with the space heater alone or to set lower to accompany my heat pump. It will adjust to about 60 degrees up to about 83-85 degrees. The large LED display also shows your energy usage at any given time. This model all has a permanent filter to help prevent dirt and dust from getting into the unit. I am not sure exactly how much it has saved me on my heating bill but so far I would estimate approximately 1/4 of my usual bill so far. The Honeywell Infrared is the best space heater that I have come across. I would highly recommend this model for any large and drafty areas.

Best Electric Heater I've EVER owned

Reviewed in the USA on 2015-10-30T17:00:00

I'd like to tell you a little about our home and this fantastic heater! My home is all electric as we don't have central heat and air. I have a 15X20 living room with a wide entrance that goes into my 15X25 kitchen as we built this home in mind of having all rooms to measure around the same including the master bedroom and two much smaller spare bedrooms and a bathroom, We built this home six years ago and always bought and used electric heaters for our living room, master bedroom and bathroom the other two spare rooms are vacant unless children, grandchildren are here. - About this electric heater I can't express enough how happy and impressed I am the heat this heater puts out as I'm able to use the remote that comes with it or touch the top with the settings. When I turned it on it showed the actual temperature in my living room 62 degrees, I set the temperature to 72 degrees as when the living room reached 72 degrees the heater started shutting down once the temp was reached. When the temperature dropped lower than 72 degrees it kicked back on. (You will need to read the instructions to completely understand how to set the settings its very simple). This Honeywell My EnergySmart Infrared Heater will heat my entire living room as times I've had to turn it down as it was to warm, not only does this heater keep my 15X20 living room very warm it also keeps my kitchen at a reasonable temperature not to cold. As shown in pictures I have this heater sitting on my area rug and it don't get warm, this heater has a handle in the top back to pick it up as this is also the area you can keep the remote control a slot is made under the handle to place it just made for the remote. This heater has 6 Premium elements as it has rollers on all four corners I can move with my fingers, the casing don't get hot not even warm. The digital display on the top Energy usage displays the amount of energy is being used. My temp settings shows all temp, fan, low, med, high (lighted with blue) and readings of L1-Constant low heat, L2-Constant Med heat, L3-Constant High heat and 60-85- EnergySmart as you set the settings the Constant number will show along with the digital usage blue lights above that. On the far right displays the timer as there are 1-8 settings. (please read instructions) as I've not set the timer yet however I have used this heater for the last three nights and woke up as I thought it was to warm in the living room as it does shut off. This says it all! If I feel I need to change the temperature to a lower setting. I am more than pleased with this heater as I will purchase another just like it for our master bedroom and use the one we have in there for one of the spare rooms if we have company or the bathroom, it is a standing tower half rotate heater and compares to nothing using this one however it will be perfect for the bathroom. My Honeywell My EnergySmart Infrared Heater is well made and puts out the heat. I strongly recommend this heater to anyone that uses electric heat and save on their electric bill by 35%. This is a safe heater around children the grill facing is built in the whole front and the tiniest fingers couldn't get near the elements although I am stating this as always keep away from small children. This heater will kick off if tilted at any point, very safe, very warm as what this heater does its well worth every penny and more. Again I strongly recommend this heater, small campers it may be to much, I have a fairly large living room and it stays warm as this winter not only save on our electric bill stay as warm as any fire place could possible get or central heat. I hope my review has helped others within choosing a great, fantastic heater. No cons at all! Thank you for reading my review trust me this is the best electric heater I've ever used. Don't let the size fool you! Best heater out there!

WE'RE READY FOR "EL NIÑO"!

The forecast is for a very cold, very wet winter and I was looking for a way to keep our large family room nice and toasty. I definitely did not want to turn on the furnace and heat up our entire house when we're usually all in one room watching TV at night. The Honeywell HZ-970 is perfect for us. Pros: Simple-to-understand instructions. No setup required and pretty quiet to run. Also, very easy to use with their handy remote control for us "couch potatoes"! The display is even angled so we can read the numbers while sitting down!! It's portable and, if we don't want to lift (with our knees), it has wheels. We like to keep things at a cozy 72°. Now we can set the temperature and let the 970 find the Energy$mart way to keep us happy and help keep our PG&E bills (I hope, up to 25%) lower. Have not gone through a long cold spell yet, but we've had it running through a couple of nights and it has done very well. It powers on quickly and can bring the temperature up within a few minutes. It then cycles on and off to keep us at an even 72. Cons: None so far although I will say.. it's on the boxy side, and not so small. We've tucked ours into a corner and it still manages to keep everyone warm. Last Words: It seems a good "investment" and I'm hoping to see some significant "returns" when we get our gas and electric bills come November and December!

INFRARED WARMTH IS THE BEST!

Reviewed in the USA on 2015-10-28T17:00:00

This arrived quickly, and was a lil bigger than what I thought it would be, but beautifully made :-) Remote had a tab to remove and was ready to go (after reading manual). Don't know much about infrared heat, but it sure warms the rooms up nicely. Since we are renting a house with no central air/heat, this is just what we needed. It's been getting down to the low 40's at night, so I have an electric fireplace downstairs, and my daughter is using this Honeywell Infrared upstairs. It heats up quickly, and kept her room, and hallway (door open), a very comfortable 68 degrees all night. There are 2 different heat modes and we are using the Energy Smart to help save on utilities. The other mode is Constant Heat, and labeled L1 for low using 1000 watts, and L2 for high using 1500 watts. It also uses 120 volts and draws 12.5 amps. The temperature can be set from 60-85 degrees, and automatic shutoff timer can be set for 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours. When I tried the remote, it would only work from 2-12 ft from front of heater, so try to put that couch, chair, or bed close by :-) The manual also says to put this 3 ft away from walls, furniture, or anything that could set on fire, and not to put on deep carpets. It only weighs about 20 lbs, but for us weaklings, there are 4 caster wheels, and a cool touch handle to help move, from room to room. This heater has overheat protection, and in case it tips over, on any side, it will shut off automatically. It may be a lil pricey, but for the size of this machine, the good heat coverage/protection, and 3 year limited warranty, I would definitely recommend this. Maybe we'll even get our rent lowered, by helping to save our landlady 25 percent every month on utilities, (included in our rent :-)

Honeywell Smart Energy Heater HZ 970 Includes: A remote control. A button, cell type, remote control battery. Owner's manual. Light weight and compact. Weighs 12.65 lbs. Has a handle and caster wheels. Has a “cool touch” plastic housing with a remote holder under the handle. 120 volts. Uses 12.5 amps. Settings: Power-on-off Fan-just cools down the quartz heating elements when you turn off the heater. Will blow for about 1 minute or less. L1: constant low-1,000 watts. The most energy efficient setting. L2: constant high-1,500 watts Timer: can set heater to run from 2 up to 8 hours. Heater will automatically shut off after the set time has passed. Has a safety feature which will shut off the heater if it gets tilted or falls over. I picked mine up by the handle to move it and the heater shut off. It has easy, simple to use controls with LED readings. This heater also has an air filter on the back behind the air filter door. They suggest cleaning the filter by vacuuming it once a month. There is also chord wrap knobs on the back to wind your chord around for storage. I tested the heater in my small 240 sq. ft. living room. Shut off the main heat source in my house. The temperature outside was 54 degrees so it wasn't real cold out. I used the manual controls, not the remote. When I pressed the power button the LED showed the room temperature as being 69 degrees. I'm not sure how accurate it read the room temp. because the thermostat on my home's central heating system is not very accurate. It started on L2-the high setting. I manually set it to low-L1. It ran very smooth and quiet, which is great for running at night, so it won't disturb your sleep. After a couple of hours I checked the room temp. and it was up to 74 degrees. Comfortable. I'm sure this is not meant to be used as a sole source of heat in your home but good to keep smaller rooms in your house warm. I have an older 2 story home, and in winter, some of the rooms are colder than others. Especially one of the upstairs bedrooms. This HZ 970 heater would be perfect to use in there. Nice and quiet little heater with safety features. I recommend using in smaller rooms for the best use.

Works Better Than Expected

I loved how I was able to stay warm and snug under the covers while warming up the bedroom, by using the remote control. This way I didn't have to wake up to a room that is so cold, it makes you want to stay in bed all day long! Using the (included) remote, I turned the Honeywell Energy Smart Infrared Heater on, used the up or down arrows to select the EnergySmart thermostat and set it to a temperature that was comfortable enough for me to stick my toes out from underneath my warm blanket. It will show me the Current room temperature on the left side of the lighted display, and the Desired room temperature on the right side. As the Current air temp approached the Desired temp, the heater will automatically adjust the power consumption to provide consistent warmth without wasting energy. I noticed that the display for the EnergySmart thermostat cycles through “high”, “low”, “fan” (no heat) and “at temp” (which means it has reached the desired air temperature and the heater shuts down at this point). When the Current air temperature dropped back down below what I set the Desired temp at, the heater turns back on, blowing the warm air around the room again. The timer allows you to set the heater to run for 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours in the selected mode, (Constant Low - L1) or (Constant High - L2) or EnergySmart. The timer counts down the hours and automatically shuts off with a polite “Beep” to let you know it's shutting down. What's good about using the EnergySmart thermostat instead of the constant low (L1) or constant high (L2) heat, is that you are saving up to 25% in energy bills! You can estimate the cost to operate the heater to determine if this is the one for you by multiplying the watts used times .001 to convert into a kilowatts measure and then multiple that by what your local electric company charges you for a kilowatt hour. Example: My local electric company charges $0.046040 per kilowatt hour in the wintertime. (I found this on my electric bill) So if I ran the heater in constant high mode (L2) (which uses 1500 watts), for 4 hours, it would cost me $0.27 (1500 watts x 4 hours x .001) x (0.046040) = 0.27624 Running the Honeywell EnergySmart Infrared Heater in Constant Low (L1) or EnergySmart settings is more energy efficient and might be a better choice if you are concerned about too high of a draw on a circuit because they only use about 1000 watts compared to Constant High (L2) which uses 1500 watts. Those two options will also save you money. Using the formula above ((total wattage x 4 Hours x .001) x Cost per Kilowatt hour = Cost To Operate), and the wintertime kilowatt hour charge from my electric bill, it would cost me $0.18 compared to the $0.27 cents that the Constant High would cost. NOTE: Both the heater unit AND the remote has all the same buttons, so you can do everything with the remote that you can do on the unit control panel. Also, the remote has a “holder” underneath the handle of the heater so you don't have to worry about losing it. I really do like this Honeywell EnergySmart Infrared Heater and HIGHLY recommend it for someone who needs more heat in their home. As long as you have a clear, flat space to set the heater that's at least 3 feet away from any wall, you are good to go!

An Incredible Heating Machine In Awe of its power!
(5)
Reviewed in the USA on 2015-11-21T16:00:00

I am simply in "Awe" of this incredible little heating machine (measures 11Wx14Lx15H)! It seems to heat any room in my small house almost instantly. We are in the middle of a remodel so this heater has come in super handy! At times, it heats up so fast, I have to turn it off! And it's incredibly QUIET too! The heater is equipped with four pre-installed easy gliding caster wheels, a remote control with battery, and came ready to use out of the box. There is a compartment that houses the remote when not in use. Once you hit the ON button, the User must wait for warm up of the machine, which I would estimate to be approximately 20-30 seconds. Once warm up is completed, this machine defaults to L3 which is the highest setting of 1500 watts of power. It has two additional pre-programmed settings: the lowest setting is L1, draws 1000 watts, and L2 draws 1250 watts. All three pre-programmed settings create a constant heat level. This particular model also has two additional settings for the User to program to their favorite heat level and also comes with a 1-8 hour timer. The programs can be overridden by the User by selecting the up/down buttons on the unit or the remote control. One thing to remember is, this heater also needs to power down after the User turns it off. In other words, don't pull the plug out of the wall to turn it off or before it powers down. Turn the heater off by pressing the On/Off button on the control panel. It will go into a power down mode for 20-30 seconds and then the User can safely unplug it from the wall outlet. I've really enjoyed this heater and love how sleek-looking and light-weight it is. The exterior is made of a black polished-looking high quality safety plastic with a luminous blue touch-screen control panel display. I also love that it has the ability to be moved around in different directions on the caster wheels utilizing the 6 foot power cord without the tip feature being activated. (Note that the heater must have a 3 foot clearance from any wall or combustible material.) This outside case is cool to the touch. Even so, my only concern is forgetting that the remote control, which is housed in a somewhat hidden compartment toward the back of the machine and under the handle, is left in its holder while the heater is in operation. The remote control is the same black color as the heater exterior making it difficult to see it. So my word of caution is, the remote has a battery in it and probably shouldn't be stored there while the heater is operating. The instruction manual states that the remote control can be stored in its holder when not in use, but the instructions have no cautionary warning about storing it there while the heater is In Use. So if the User will not be using the remote, it may be safest to remove the battery while the remote is in its holder. I forgot a few times and left the remote in its holder with the battery in it while operating the heater, so I think the manufacturer should come up with a holder closer to the front and within view of the User. Better to err on the side of safety. I am super-duper satisfied with this heater and will be using it for years to come, I am sure. Other safety features include the four way tip-over (front, back, side to side), a high temperature and safety control preventing overheating, an over-heat switch which shuts the heater down. As with all operating machines, please read all of the safety precautions and instruction manual before use. This product is intended for use on floors only and is not intended for use in wet or damp locations such as bathrooms and laundry areas. FOR INDOOR RESIDENTIAL USE ONLY. User can register this product online extending the warranty by an additional 6 months. Heater is made by Honeywell.

Limited usage so far, but works well

Reviewed in the USA on 2015-11-11T16:00:00

This heater is great looking. It is so light, only weighs 16.6 lbs, with a built in bar handle to carry and casters to roll it. It's a heater that heats big areas, but easily portable. It can be moved around by just about anyone. It is very quiet and cool. No hot touch areas on the unit except where it blows out. You wouldn't normally be touching that area anyway, but I don't think it gets hot enough to burn. Boy things have changed since I was a kid. I got lit up a few times by accidentally bumping the side of a space heater! Today kids don't have to be terrified of heaters like we were! A nice feature is that the current room temperature is displayed on the heater. I also like the two pre-set temperature settings that you can set into memory. It can be set to a desired temperature with or without a timer. But I think it would be better with more than two pre-set buttons. Make it a habit to keep the heater unplugged when not in use. It is too easy for children to turn it on, and also a desirable surface for the cats to jump onto and power it up. But it does have an automatic shut off if the heater is tipped. Well, I only had two days that I've had the chance to use it because this year Fall has forgotten to show up! However, it worked great when I had the chance. It powered up quickly and quietly. It heated to my pre-set and warmed the entire area in great time. I don't know much about energy consumption or the examples given so I can't testify as to any energy savings. But l like how it looks, how easy it is to move around and how well it works. So I would recommend this heater.
